Chapter 80: You are helping me by staying here obediently
It was almost time to go out, so he didn't continue sleeping and went into the kitchen to cook breakfast.
I was busy when I felt something was wrong. I turned around and met a pair of confused eyes.
Su Yan squinted her eyes, looked at the clock on the wall, then looked at him, and uttered a small "Ah," "Why are you up so early?"
It was not even five o'clock yet. In winter, the sun rises late, so even at seven o'clock in the morning, it was still dark.
She now sleeps until nine or ten o'clock and spends less than eight hours in the store every day.
"Get up early to collect debts, and come back with the money to support your wife."
He Thorn felt cold water on his face, so he didn't touch her. He raised his chin towards the room and said, "Go back to bed, it's still early."
Su Yan tilted her head and said "oh", but did not move, still leaning against the door frame to look at him.
He had slept too little these days and had lost a lot of weight. Although he was still as handsome as ever, she always felt a little uncomfortable with him.
It turns out that he is better when he is stronger.
After being stared at by her for two minutes, He Ji stopped, turned around, and sighed at her, "I'm afraid of you."
"Let's go back to sleep together."
Su Yan pursed her lips and smiled, then held his arm obediently and went back to the room together.
After working hard from morning till night every day, the final payment finally came in one day before the Chinese New Year.
After settling all the bills, He Ji fell on the sofa and breathed a sigh of relief.
He stretched out his big hand, pulled Su Yan, who had been staring at her phone for a long time, into his arms, and asked, "What are you looking at?"
"I'm checking the route. The road back home has been blocked for almost the entire day."
He Ji snatched her phone away and sneered, "Why are you looking at these? We're not going back."
Although it is only a few hours from here to my hometown, the road is very congested.
If they set off now, by the time they arrive at their hometown, it will most likely be the afternoon of the first day of the new year. They will have to come back after a few days, and there will be traffic jams again. Why bother?
After the New Year, you can just take the time to go back. Why do you have to choose the New Year days?
"Now that everything is done, my time is yours until the seventh day of the Lunar New Year. Tell me what we should do."
Su Yan cried out, how could she know what to do? She had grown up and had never prepared anything for the New Year.
When her parents were alive, they bought it for her. After they passed away, it made no difference to her whether she celebrated the New Year or not, so she didn't need to prepare New Year's goods.
The two of them were too lazy to bother, and they stared at each other for a long time before He Ji said, "Why don't we buy some red paper and stick it on? It's Chinese New Year after all."
As for anything else, they decided not to buy it. There were only two of them and no one would come to wish them a happy new year.
Su Yan was just responsible for nodding. She didn't understand anything and could only do what He Ji said.
He Ji made a list of the things he wanted to buy, looked it over several times, and after making sure that nothing was missed, he took Su Yan out.
During the Chinese New Year holidays, the vegetable markets are closed and only supermarkets are open. However, the vegetables in the supermarkets are easily bought up by the early risers. In order to have vegetables to eat during these days, they have to buy more.
In the following time, Su Yan stared blankly at He Ji as he loaded things onto the car again and again.
Thanks to his efforts, the car was soon full, with only the two seats in the front left.
He Ji took a look and thought that something else could be stuffed in, so he pulled Su Yan into the supermarket again and bought her a bunch of snacks.
When she returned, Su Yan was completely surrounded by snacks. If she didn't look closely, she wouldn't be able to tell that there was someone sitting on the passenger seat.
They hadn't walked for long and hadn't moved anything, but Su Yan felt particularly tired. She lay on the sofa, watching He Ji move things in, and let out a cry.
"Let me help you."
Hearing her weak voice, He Ji curled his lips and said, "You are helping me by staying here well."
Su Yan: ...
"oh!"
The consequence of buying her too many snacks was that Su Yan was already full before mealtime.
After He Ji finished cooking, she had a bitter face and picked at the rice for a long time without putting a single bite into her mouth.
When He Ji was full, there was still so much rice in her bowl. He Ji gritted his teeth and asked, "Is your stomach too full and can't hold any more food?"
Su Yan nodded.
"I have a good way to help you digest the food in your stomach as quickly as possible."
His voice was low and hoarse, and there was a fire in his eyes. Su Yan, who was already familiar with him, felt her hair stand on end when she saw him.
He was busy recently, which gave her a break for a long time. Now that he has slowed down, isn't it time to get back the debt he owed her?
He was fierce to begin with, and now he had this intention. After all this trouble, would she still be alive?
She had a bitter face and bit her chopsticks, thinking about what excuse she could use to escape this disaster, but before she could think of an excuse, she was picked up.
"Don't even think about it. Even if today is the end of the world, I won't let you go."
Su Yan: ...
The look on his face as he gritted his teeth was truly terrifying.
Woohoo~
Someone come quickly and save her!
Looking at her cowardly appearance, He Ji curled up the corners of his mouth into a smile and let out a light hum from his throat.
"Stop frowning, it's almost wrinkled like a bun."
There was an obvious smile in his voice, and Su Yan's face frowned even more when she heard it.
What else could she do now except frown?
She couldn't run away and begging for mercy was useless, so she could only express her inner feelings in this way.
——
On the first day of the new year, Su Yan received dozens of WeChat red envelopes. The constant messages scared her.
She didn't click it, but held the phone tightly and called out "He Ji" a few times.
Her voice was hoarse, as if she had a cold, and even though she tried very hard, her voice was still low.
After waiting for half an hour without getting a response, Su Yan knew that He Ji didn't hear her, so she called him.
When He Ji came in, he saw her lying on her side and sighed, "Your legs are still weak?"
Su Yan glared at him and ignored him. If he hadn't been so excessive, how could her legs still be so weak?
He had clearly promised to hold back a bit, but in the end, he acted like a madman.
She cried until her voice became hoarse and her eyes were swollen, but he still smiled and said that she looked pretty good.
The more she thought about it, the angrier she got. She pouted and threw the phone over, "Look for yourself."
"What are you looking at?" He Ji asked, opened his phone and looked at it, then shook his head.
"Those two old guys are really generous to you. In my entire life, the red envelopes I've received are never as big as yours."
He checked them one by one, then threw the phone back on the bedside, leaned over and kissed Su Yan on the lips, "Just take what they give you, they don't mind that."
The money he gave them every year was enough for them to give out hundreds of such red envelopes.
